Firing a c 96 mauser 7.65

In the past, people tried 7,62x25 Tokarev on Mauser because it's not easy to find correct .30 Mauser ammo. Not the situation nowadays. PPU .30 Mauser cartridge is available in many gun stores. PPU is actually weaker than DWM 403 and it's safe to use.

Another reason to use surplus Tokarev ammo was the price.... Serbian made PPU is not very cheap ($19.95 for 50 rounds?), but not as expensive as .30 Luger.
